The Actors Fund Home

The Actors Fund Home sits on six acres in Englewood, New Jersey, only seven miles from New York City, and was built to serve performing artists and entertainment industry professionals, so you'll see Broadway actors, jazz musicians, television producers, dancers, directors, and people from many creative backgrounds coming together in a peaceful setting with dining rooms, private and semi-private bedrooms, a beauty salon, a patio, a chapel, and an enclosed courtyard where residents and visitors can walk or just sit and enjoy the day. The community focuses on helping seniors interact, whether through clubs, events, social dining, or outings to theaters, shopping malls, museums, area parishes, or restaurants, and there's always something on the calendar, from educational activities to entertainment, in indoor spaces with vaulted ceilings and contemporary light fixtures that make everything feel comfortable and open. Superb health care and supportive services come from a professional, friendly staff that includes dedicated caregivers available 24/7, which means residents get help with medication, wellness, and daily needs right when they need it, whether they're in assisted living, skilled nursing, or memory care, and there's a strong outbreak response plan to keep people safe during disease outbreaks. Staff stay ready to deliver weekly housekeeping and laundry, three meals a day, personal health insurance guidance, counseling for health or mental health concerns, and therapy services in short-stay rehabilitation for those coming back from illness or surgery, all under the guidance of executive director Jordan Strohl, who works with a team following a mission focused on quality aging services. The Actors Fund Home welcomes people who need everything from assisted living and memory care (with Comfort Matters® accreditation and NJ Department of Health certification) to skilled nursing and rehabilitation with physical, speech, or occupational therapy, all on a not-for-profit basis as part of the broader Entertainment Community Fund, and there's never a shortage of supportive options, including emergency financial help, funeral and burial assistance, career counseling for residents still interested, mental health and addiction support, women's health initiatives, HIV programs, and resources for people with disabilities. Shared spaces bring people together, and the home feels modern yet filled with warmth and charm, aiming to maintain a high quality of life while supporting independence, and there's a long list of programs, from the Dancers' Resource to disaster help, that make life richer for residents who've spent their lives in entertainment. The facility holds a Five Stars rating from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and a perfect survey result from the New Jersey State Department of Health, and whether someone comes just for short-term rehab or plans to settle in, they find a structure designed for comfort, connection, and reliable care.
